ReactionHarvey Elliott: Me and my family will always remember that goal
The No.67 marked his return to the pitch after nearly five months out by netting the Reds' third in their 3-1 victory to reach the fifth round of the Emirates FA Cup.
Introduced in the second half for the first time since suffering a serious ankle injury at Leeds United, Elliott required less than 20 minutes to leave his mark on the game.
Speaking to ITV post-match, the 18-year-old said: "It's still hard to put into words at the moment.
"This is what I'm in the team to do – to score and assist. Thankfully it's come today in front of the crowd after having a long time out.
"At the end of the day, it's my job, so I've just got to keep doing it. It's a moment that myself and my family will remember."
On the strike itself, he continued: "It wasn't too bad!
"I've been watching my man next to me, Diogo, he's been banging them in left, right and centre for us, so I've been getting a few tips off him.
"It's nice to score and how it came to me, you've just got to finish it how it comes. I'm just thankful I was able to do it."
Acknowledging there's a lengthy list of people who helped him on his road to recovery, Elliott singled out one of the club's physiotherapists in particular.
He said: "The list goes on, to be honest, but one man most importantly was Joe Lewis at Liverpool.
"One of the physios, he took me in the early hours of the morning and didn't finish until late at night. So he got me back strong again.
"Like I said, the list can go on. Big shoutout to all my family and friends as well – especially my mum and dad, they've helped me and supported me throughout.
"Just a massive thank you to everyone at LFC, even the fans for the support and love. I'm back now and the injury is behind me."
